Not a fan of the selective color and it's a little flat from a contrast standpoint. Fans at the top are distracting so you'd better served to crop at least down if not in. Otherwise nicely seen and executed. Maybe instead of the selective color next time, shoot one with and one without and remove either the man or the refection for added impact?

Nicely assembled and imagined composite. I'll pick some nits for future reference: the sharp edge at the top of the water busts the illusion, the tree could stand out some more, and you could do with less wasted space around the subject. Nice work nonetheless.

You've WAY oversharpened here, perhaps trying to enhance areas that are out of focus? Still, you want to avoid or at least fix all those halos.

I like the idea of the symmetric reflection but there's just too much of it and it loses its effectiveness in the competition. You could probably crop in at multiple points within this shot and have something more interesting, but this is just OK.

Lovely setting and well processed, but the couple needs to occupy more of the shot. I'd imagine in a large frame on the wall this works fine but not on a MacBook screen

Easily a stop dark. Falls flat and the OOF plant in the front is more distracting than anything. Other than being dark the processing is nicely done.

The composite is just way too random for me. It's not done badly, but it's also not done in a way that convinces me it's something.

Around these parts there is a tendency to really overdo shots like this. You didn't and I'm so glad.

I really like this and am bumping it a point. That said, in your processing, when you pull out details in the stuff you want us to see, get rid of it in the stuff you don't. Too much structure in the OOF areas here.

Come on, "I'm Looking Through You" - it's obvious!! :)

I love everything but the title.

(OK, it's not obvious, "Secondhand Voyeurism" is better. LOL) 7 for me. I want to give it more and would if the verticals were straight. Still expect this could be front page.
